P.S.: As I'm heading into the third week of the Chronic Pain Centre's treatment program, some Scotch might give me extra fortitude. I've always though Scotch was an excellent analgesic, and ideal for those of us living with chronic pain.

There are, however, those who think differently on the matter of pain and Scotch for analgesia. Sigh. Good-hearted souls, but, well, you (being a nurse) know. Sigh, again.
